Dislike two middle names

They can work if they flow.

I'm not sure how it would actually work since many forms are designed to have only first, middle, last. But if you are allowed to formally give two middle names, I suppose you could. I've known a few families who have done so but I haven't asked how it's worked out in the long run.

Don't listen to the haters, it can totally work.

I think two middle names can work if the three names and your surname aren't too long. Different syllable counts would be ideal for the smoothest flow.

If you have a long first name (eg. three or more syllables), choose one and two syllable middle names.

If the first name is one syllable, then two and three syllable names would work in the middle spot.

Since we use our first and last names the most in real life, I would concentrate first on the flow between them and then begin on the middles.

The only issue you may face is whether the official documents will allow all of the names to be entered.

Most people in my family have two middle names so I'm for it. The only thing I'd say is ensure all your kids have the same number of middles (this is something that created issues in my family).
